I am all for a short time limit. 3 Minutes Max. I would even be ok with 2 minutes.
Is the draft permanently on hold or can we start it up again so we can get as much done before that day. I don't know about everyone else but sitting at my computer for 6 hours on that march 14th will be tough for me. The more we get done before that day is the best in my opinion.
